That's an inspired idea, Crowbar, but it would be a better move to make under a future Democratic administration than the present Republican one. I figure Saddam will have to be pretty cagey about this, and pick the right preacher to suit the prevailing political climate in Washington.

Not Graham. He should get The Rev Jesse Jackson, Clinton's spiritual advisor to cleanse away any wrong doing.

Naw...he'll never run Iraq again. Not a chance. But there is one out for the big guy, and this is it. He does a sudden, dramatic religious conversion and gets "born again", preferably after a heartfelt confab with Billy Graham. It worked for George Bush, so why not for Saddam? From that point on, Saddam will constantly quote Jesus, his new Lord and Saviour, and will love everything American (Jesus was an American, wasn't he? Must have been...). Hell, Manuel Noriega did it too, and they didn't execute him. Remember? Okay, so next thing that happens, Saddam will be exported stateside and take up country music or maybe even become a TV gospel preacher. He will get a daytime TV show from Las Vegas and deliver diatribes against Muslim fundamentalists and anybody else that doesn't love Jesus and America.

This is definitely the way out for Saddam, and I think he should go for it. No question.

So what is your plan for bringing justice to Saddam? Withdraw from Iraq?

Actually, it's rather wimpy to go along with the tough talk distortions that led us into the war. Much tougher to face the truth.

You'll find all kinds of anti-warriors who agree with you that Saddam must never return, let alone go free.

But you'll make no friends and influence few people blaming Saddam on us.

What will happen to Saddam?

Already he can't get an unfair trial. Killers hired by his family and Baathist supporters are killing the lawyers of others on trial to make it an unfair trial. "I can't get a lawyer because the insurgency caused by the US is killing the lawyers."

It will be moved to the Hague and he will make a campaign platform out of it.

The new Iraq government will fall apart due to killers harbored, supported and financed by Iran and Syria and Baathists.

He will then be able to regain his former position and blame everything on the US.

He is being aided and abetted by anti-war wimps all over the world.

The sumbitch needs to be executed now.

Only way Saddam's gonna rise again is if someone can figure out a way to get his soul back from Hell after he's been executed.

On the other hand, the likelihood of another strongman rising to power in Iraq would seem pretty darn good. And the likelihood of that strongman being a religious fanatic instead of a secularist like Saddam seems even better.

But it won't be "due (to) the the feckless supporters of Political Correctness and Anti-War girly men". It'll simply be because expecting a society that, throughout it's entire history, has been ruled by a monarchy, dictatorship, or external colonial/imperialist power to reverse course and adopt a democratic system of self-governance is unrealistic.

I hope Mr. Bush's experiment in externally-imposed democracy works, because the consequences of it not working are really scary.

Now, Amos, I think most of us will agree that he will rise, at least temporarily on the scaffold...

Due the the feckless supporters of Political Correctness and Anti-War girly men, Saddam Hussein will regain his position of Dictator of Iraq.
